Songan was set on his task of checking on the canoes. It was not exactly the duty of a craftsman, but he wanted to make sure that there were plenty to be used when fish was plentiful and the other tribe members wanted to use one to go fishing. He was sure he would be able to make at least one this day, especially if he would be able to get his sister to help him. For the moment she seemed to be off in her own little world and thinking of some other things. He would let her have the time she needed before beginning the work. As the rust wolf was waiting, he moved back over to Rain and took the rope that he had brought with him and swung it over his shoulder. He knew he was going to need it to bring the wood back for making the canoe.
His golden gaze moved over to the she wolf as she came over to Songan and Rain as she said she would help him. It was nice that his sister would be helping him, but he was a bit taken off by the frown she wore when she answered. It was alright if she didn’t want to help him, no one was forcing her to do anything. "Yes. It looks like we could use a couple more, though it make take some time for us just to make one."He gave her a small nod before turning back to Rain and getting up on her back. He reached his hand down to her. "Perhaps you would like to ride with me Chitsa?" It would be alright if she didn’t want to ride with him. She then asked how they were made. He pondered for a moment and then began to explain. "They’re made of wood. The canoes have to be carved into their shape. We’ll have to make sure there’s enough room for a couple of us each to sit in it."
Once the two amaras were ready to leave, he began to head to the woods near the Town Hall. He was sure he would be able to find a nice knocked over log they could use to build the canoe. After a bit of time, he slid off the horse and began to look around. He kept his rope with him so that he could use it as measurement and make sure the one they picked out he would have enough rope. He looked over to Chitsa and swayed his tail. "Ok, we need to find a nice shaped log. I don’t have any tools to cut anything down, so we’ll have to use one that has fallen already." His golden gaze moved around as he continued to look. The red wolf spotted a nice one and began to measure it with rope. It had a good thickness, though was very long. He wondered if there were any shorter logs nearby.
